If you grew up in a close-knit family, they mean the world to you. Nothing will ever replace them and your love for them will never falter. There are several ways to know you came from this type of situation. Here are 7 signs that you grew up in a close family.
1. Moving away was full of tears
Going away to college meant your family was torn apart. Being separated from them was one of the hardest things you had to go through because you could not imagine waking up and going about your day without them by your side.
2. Coming home is always exciting
It does not matter if you were just home the weekend before, getting to see your family is always so exciting. Just coming home to their smiling faces and open arms makes the hustle and bustle of college life just kind of melt away.
3. You would rather hang out with them
No matter how old you were, hanging out with your family was way more fun than hanging out with your friends. A simple night in with a movie and popcorn was always more appealing than a party down the road. Your family has a way of making you comfortable and have the most fun doing anything.
4. Your mom or dad is your best friend
If you spent your life telling people your mom or dad or even sibling is your best friend, then you grew up in a very close family. The fact that the idea of an outsider knowing your secrets would make you nervous just shows how much love and support lies within your own home.
5. You call your mom every day
The one person you can guarantee you will talk to every single day is your mom. You call her when you get out of class, when you get home, before you go to work, on your drive home, and before you go to bed. Your heart is deeply broken when she does not answer or is at work and cannot talk. She is the first person you tell all of your days events to.
6. Your parents will always be "cool"
Growing up, your parents were always considered to be "cool". No matter if it was a birthday, a sleepover or even a party, everyone always wanted to hang out at your house with your parents. The best thing about it was that you agreed. In your eyes, no one had better parents than you did.
7. They will always support you
You came from a close family if your biggest fans are your family members. No one will ever love and support you quite like they do. Most of the time, their encouragement is the only thing that keeps you going and striving to make them proud. They will always take your bragging rights as their own.
